Information Renate Y. would like to know about your pet

I really appreciate when owners give me instructions on how to care for their pet. The more I know about the pets behavior, likes and dislikes, feeding schedule, it helps me to become better familiar with the animal and makes it easier on the animal also.

A typical day

I like to stimulate dogs physically and Mentally. Weather permitting, I love walking dogs. Playing ball outside. And inside playing tug with rope toys. I also love talking to dogs.

Thank you very much for a great care of our dog Tina. We really appreciate your kindness and hospitality. And we know that Tina wasn’t missing us at all during this 2 days stay.

I felt Renate did a awesome job watching my dog Mia, My dog was happy when I arrived to pick her up, She was sad when I took her home, She had a good time at Renates house & bonded great with Maggie.I will definitely get in touch with her again, when I need a sitter..She's a great lady & a dog lover for sure

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
